Guest Crew.orgy Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 The " juxta position" is the appeal... to me! The best of many eras in one package. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

grant 40 Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 argh! I shouldn't have mentioned the colour!!! Sundreamer - Pink and white is the only colour scheme for your fine vessel, she is a classic and deserves to have her photo in this thread anyway back on topic..... I particularly like the Starling, looks nice and sails nice, I'm not sure Des could actually design anything that didn't fit that criteria, but to date a Starling is the only Townson I have owned and sailed.... and that's not me! its just a photo I found Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Crew.orgy Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Just gorgeous https://www.google.com/search?q=rhiemers+yacht+design&safe=active&client=tablet-android-lenovo&prmd=minv&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiU2b_kurLOAhUGGpQKHb4sCJkQ_AUICCgC&biw=1280&bih=800#imgrc=YSqy2yK4tLlE8M%3A Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Clipper 343 Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Gorgeous? Don't think so. Hull lines are ok if into that sort of thing, but that little cabin box does not look right at all. Would be awesome if you could put the images of your choices into this thread, I'm over clicking away and back again to see. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Clipper 343 Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 I like the shionning G Force 1400. Fast, comfortable, fast and looks modern and aggressive, if not 'pretty' Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Crew.orgy Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Would be awesome if i knew how to attach images. How do you? Wheres the magic button? And for a fast cruising cat i agree. In the Med they are the best boats to have. Big platforms, great accom, easily driven, stable, fast and shallow, water mooring. Yeah the cabin if not right but the hull shape is great.
